Each December, millions of users ask the same question: when will the long-awaited musical summary of their Spotify habits be released?

What day of the week could Spotify Wrapped 2025 come out?

Although Spotify maintains its policy of not revealing the exact Wrapped release date in advance, previous years’ launches allow us to make a fairly accurate prediction.

In 2023, Wrapped was released on Wednesday, November 29, and in 2024, it came out on Wednesday, December 4. Following that pattern, Wednesday, December 3, 2025 seems like a likely date.

This timeframe aligns with the platform’s historical behavior, as Spotify typically releases its Wrapped between the last week of November and the first week of December. This strategy is no accident: Spotify drops Wrapped right as the season of end-of-year lists and recaps begins, ensuring audience attention and making a strong cultural and media impact.

Moreover, Google Trends already shows a spike in searches related to the Spotify Wrapped 2025 release date, signaling growing global interest in when the new edition will arrive.

What is Spotify Wrapped and why does it generate so much anticipation?

Spotify Wrapped is an interactive annual summary that reveals each user’s listening habits throughout the year. From your most-played songs and artists to your “musical aura,” Wrapped turns your streaming data into a visual storytelling experience that’s easy to share on social media.

Each Wrapped also includes:

• Your favorite music genres.
• Total minutes listened.
• A personalized playlist called “Your Top Songs 2025.”
• Charts and stats that reveal your “musical personality.”

Where and how can you view Spotify Wrapped 2025?

Once Wrapped is available, users will be able to access it in two main ways:

1. Spotify mobile app (iOS or Android): it usually appears as a featured banner on the home screen.
2. Official website: you can visit spotify.com/wrapped to view your summary.

Wrapped is typically available throughout December and part of January, although the interactive stories disappear after that period. However, the personalized playlist with your most-played songs remains saved in your library.

How can you view your previous Spotify Wrapped?

If you’d like to revisit your past summaries, even though the interactive presentations are no longer accessible, you can:

• Search your library for playlists titled “Your Top Songs 2024,” “2023,” and so on.
• Visit spotify.com/wrapped to explore previous retrospectives, if Spotify enables that feature.
